Ovadia & Sons

Ovadia & Sons is a new company out of New York entering the world of hand tailored suiting. Started by two brothers whose family have been in the clothing business for 25+ years, Ovadia & Sons is their first foray into menswear and focuses on creating pieces with the best fabrics and manufactures the industry has to offer. I need to do some more research to find out where the clothing is made exactly, but I do know their ties are made by Drakes of London (shoes are also made in the UK). Regardless, things looks really good and while O&S calls their collection "cutting edge Americana" I am a tad inclined to find reference points in a much more European style of dress. Anyhow, be on the lookout for their S/S 2011 collection, a preview of which can be seen below and some of which was featured in WWD last week. I should also point out that the zig zag tie is a must own.
